Recent history suggests Brewers need to close out NLDS in San Diego

The Brewers hold a 2-0 lead in their NLDS against the Padres after Jackson Chourio hit a walk-off two-run single in Game 2, putting them one win away from the NLCS. San Diego now has home-field advantage for Games 3 and 4 in the series. Milwaukee's experience last year is instructive: they led the Cubs 2-0 before the series went to Game 5, and the extended series combined with limited recovery time before facing the Dodgers in the NLCS may have contributed to their sweep. The Brewers have not won a road postseason game since 2018, making their task in San Diego difficult despite needing just one more victory.
